SURE: What you'll do as a SURE student

What you'll do

Students will work on research projects based on research questions ranging from addiction to sleep to cancer. Each student will have a primary question that they will focus on answering through their experiments during the summer. Students may work in collaborative teams with faculty and graduate students or more independently to accomplish their specific research goals.

All students will participate in a series of workshops and meetings across the 9 weeks of the program. Workshops will be facilitated by WSU faculty, and include:
